Hello!

This is an experimental semi-automated report about issues detected by
Coverity from a scan of next-20221202 as part of the linux-next scan project:
https://scan.coverity.com/projects/linux-next-weekly-scan

You're getting this email because you were associated with the identified
lines of code (noted below) that were touched by commits:

    98686cd21624 ("wifi: mt76: mt7996: add driver for MediaTek Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) devices")

Coverity reported the following:

*** CID 1527816:  Integer handling issues  (INCOMPATIBLE_CAST)
drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/mt7996/debugfs.c:657 in mt7996_rf_regval_set()
651
652     static int
653     mt7996_rf_regval_set(void *data, u64 val)
654     {
655     	struct mt7996_dev *dev = data;
656
vvv     CID 1527816:  Integer handling issues  (INCOMPATIBLE_CAST)
vvv     Pointer "&val" points to an object whose effective type is "unsigned long long" (64 bits, unsigned) but is dereferenced as a narrower "unsigned int" (32 bits, unsigned). This may lead to unexpected results depending on machine endianness.
657     	return mt7996_mcu_rf_regval(dev, dev->mt76.debugfs_reg, (u32 *)&val, true);
658     }
659
660     DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE(fops_rf_regval, mt7996_rf_regval_get,
661     			 mt7996_rf_regval_set, "0x%08llx\n");
662

If this is a false positive, please let us know so we can mark it as
such, or teach the Coverity rules to be smarter. If not, please make
sure fixes get into linux-next. :) For patches fixing this, please
include these lines (but double-check the "Fixes" first):
